A little about Cosmetic Acupuncture Face-Lifts and rejuvenation….

Cosmetic Acupuncture targets internal causes of aging while minimizing the outward appearance. Blood and circulation is also energized which improves facial color.  Through Acupuncture your face lifts itself by your muscles revitalizing and tightening.  The Acupuncture body and face points correct imbalances in the body giving you all the healthy side affects of this procedure.

So what’s the science behind Cosmetic Acupuncture?  Tiny micro-traumas are caused by inserting the needles into the skin, which stimulate your body’s wound healing process.  Through this healing process your body balances out the dispersal of collagen by encouraging fibroblasts (cells that form collagen and elastin fibers) to travel to the needling sites and deposit new collagen fibers.  From this Acupuncture process your skin becomes more collagen- and elastin-rich.

Firmer, newer, and younger looking skin is yours!

A study in the International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture about Cosmetic Acupuncture reported 90% of women in the clinical study experienced looking younger with just one treatment!

Course of Treatment

The average course of treatments is ten to fourteen sessions (depending on the individual).  Please allow for one hour for each session.  After the first treatment there will be subtle results and a glow about you.  Typically results become noticeable visible after four to seven treatments.  After the intense course of needed treatments, maintenance is strongly recommended to sustain the health of the skin, which should be done once or twice per month.

Please be aware that depending on an individual’s age and lifestyle their skin may respond differently to treatment and the timeframe of results may vary.

Each Cosmetic Acupuncture treatment also includes a Medical Acupuncture treatment during the session and other health concerns can be addressed at that time.
